No Run-Up on Skis?

I've never flown anything (except myself) on skis. If a run-up is possible, how does one go about it? Toss out a couple of anchors? Tie the aircraft to an edge marker? On a more serious note, justs what ARE the alternatives to a high RPM run-up (assuming a piston engine and a prop that cannot be feathered). How does one 'prove' the engine and/or mags in the real world? Thanks.
